<p id="GUID-9A7E4340-6DED-44F8-93D0-FA8B46701564">This widget provides editing capabilities using an editable layer in a feature service. It displays a gallery of templates  from one or more
feature layers. On the map, you can pick a symbol on the template to create a feature with the associated attribute inspector or select an existing feature to update its geometry and attributes. If the feature layer has related tables, you can edit the related records associated with the attributes.    If the feature layer supports attachments, you can create, view, and delete attachments. Optionally, you can enable the toolbar for advanced feature editing.</p><div class="notes" id="GUID-C3291962-BF2A-4CCB-8813-BC557588D651"><div class="tip"><img class="note_img" src="rsrc/tip.png" alt="Tip" title="Tip"><span>Tip:</span></div><div class="tipbody"><p id="GUID-102197C8-19CB-4680-BB9A-10A62503367D">To use the Edit widget, the map you select on the <span class="uicontrol">Map</span> tab must contain editable layers. </p></div></div><div class="notes" id="GUID-FD759FE3-D0E4-47FE-A522-38E1DC04F5BE"><div class="note"><img class="note_img" src="rsrc/note.png" alt="Note" title="Note"><span>Note:</span></div><div class="tipbody"><p id="GUID-ACD17EB3-296C-43F7-8092-8264969E4526">Starting with the <span purpose="ph" varid="ArcGISOnline">ArcGIS Online</span> September release, you can edit nested related records.
